Netanyahu: Time for Arab States to Publicize Israel Ties

The Times of Israel reports: Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday said it was time for some Arab states with which Israel has covert ties to publicly acknowledge those relationships.

Addressing the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, the prime minister maintained that most moderate Arab countries see Israel as their ally, not their enemy, as they share a common struggle against Iran and the Islamic State.

“Major Arab countries are changing their view on Israel… they don’t see Israel anymore as their enemy, they see it as an ally.”
